Journals

Instructors can assign a journal to each user in a Course or
Course Group that is accessible by only them and the user in order
to communicate privately with the Instructor.

About Journals

Users can post messages to the Instructor and the Instructor, in
turn, can comment. Instructors can allow Journal entries to be read
by the rest of the users in a Course. Instructors can grade Group
Journals and apply the grade to every member of the
Course Group.
